I have a friend that would like to go to Tahoe but would prefer not to drive. He doesn't walk well & gets winded easy. He could fly & rent a car but he still would require some sort of cart or Rascal to get around when looking at cars & visiting with people. Who could he or I contact to help meet these requirements?...Thank you, Joe

Hi,

My wife has a small, travelling power wheelchair and we have taken it with us on vacation. Southwest Airlines lets you drive right up to the airplane and then you walk onto the plane. The wheelchair gets stashed (checked) below and when you arrive at your destination, they bring the wheelchair back up to the plane for you to disembark.

Our travelling chair is a Merits P120. It comes apart easily and fits into the back of a station wagon or trunk of
a full sized car.

On our most recent trip to Las Vegas, we arranged to rent a handicap accessible van for the week. This way, she was able to drive right up into the van and away we went.

The consierge of the resort should be able to help you rent a power wheelchair or scooter, if your friend does not already have one. Or, you could buy a used one on craigslist or ebay and then bring it to South Lake Tahoe.

I'd be happy to discuss our experiences with you. Send me a PM with your contact info.

All my best, Dean
